Make way long, elaborate manicures – short almond nails are in!
Despite TikTok making a big deal out of the mob wife aesthetic and the tossing out of Y2K trends and girl core, it looks like simplistic nails aren’t going anywhere. If it’s been a while since you’ve trimmed your stunning claws, here’s some inspiration for your next salon visit.
Are they really in?
I don’t know about you, but my TikTok has been filled with simple, short manicures. I’ve seen beauty TikTokers sigh in relief, realising that the short nail aesthetic is the new it look.
And, surprisingly, women all over are here for it – and so are we!
Don’t worry though; short almond nails can be just as catty and eye-catching to match your new mob wife aesthetic (or any other style you’re going for).
